Wow, this tank will never cease to amaze me! Looks like you got rid of a lot of the stem plants, I like this even more than the last update!

Right - only a couple of stem plants remain (stems are way too much work in a tank that is 30" tall - lol).
Gradually cut the ferts back to just once a week - using only pFertz. The tank (knock on wood) just seems to have balanced and is growing very nicely under the lights (running only 160W total now - barely over 1wpg). TBH (to be honest), ferts just seem to grow the algae on the glass and not the plants in the tank. Just a hint of ferts every week to keep the green growing green ...
